what’s not shown here is the unlimited cake fridge… taken as a challenge, obviously 🤭 Days spent on Seaventures dive rig were so unique, and I don’t just mean the resort itself: from the dive sites, surreal sunsets and plethora of marine life that hung around around the rig 🐠 every day there was something new to experience (although, let’s be real here, living on a decommissioned oil rig turned dive paradise was certainly a first 🤩) #scubadiving #diving #padi #underwater #ditlvlog

Storytelling in conservation is an incredibly powerful tool, and honestly, you don’t need the craziest underwater setup in order to capture some pretty special moments under the waves 🌊 ✨ I’ve been using @goprouk for years because of how easy and accessible it has been to start documenting what I get up to under the water with their cameras, and I’ve been super stoked to start my partnership journey with them over the past year 🥹 I’m big on ease of use because it’s really important for me to be as present in the moment alongside capturing content 😌so also just want to mention I’m especially a big fan of the underwater housing as it means I can dive with my GoPro with no dramas - the housing is waterproof down to 60m so whether I’m on a deep dive or in the shallows I don’t have to swap any gear over 🙏 PLUS with the extension pole I literally just tuck the setup into my BCD strap and that’s me set for a dive to pull it out and film whenever I need ✨ • • • • • #gopro #marineconservation #scubadiving #marinebiology #diving #marinelife #underwatercamera #goprohero13

A little insight into what a day diving The Red Sea, Saudi Arabia with @PADI and @The Red Sea looks like 🤿🐠🪸 #VisitRedSea #Galaxea #experienceredsea #WAMA #scubadiving #padi #worldoceansday

my first visit to the Maldives has truly exceeded (the already pretty steep) expectations 🌺✨🐠 It’s been utterly awe-inspiring to dive with this many fish and sharks aggregated in one place, and I’ve deeply appreciated the true soul days spent here at Nova Maldives 🌴 sunrise island strolls spent watching the reef sharks lead on to evenings spent in invigorating conversation; and there’s nothing quite like watching Blue Planet under the stars to finish off an underwater day 🌌 #scubadiving #diving #padi #underwater #ditlvlog #maldives

There’s a misconception in the conservation industry that says you have to have a degree in order to truly hold a valid place in the sector 👀 Look, informing and educating yourself is profoundly important… imperative, actually 🌊 but this doesn’t have to solely be done through a university course 💙 Whether it’s creating educational content, working as a divemaster, volunteering, or simply organising a beach clean in your hometown 🌟 conservation isn’t one conventional path; every single piece of it matters and equally builds towards the whole 🫶🏼 as the legend himself, Steve Irwin, put it: it’s about getting out there, having fun, and following your passion :) I’ve loved using @goprouk to film my underwater content and help tell these stories; the camera is super accessible and has helped me share stories from Borneo to Australia and beyond 🐠 filming dives or simple plastic pickups, my setup has made it easy to stay present and document moments that matter 📸 Storytelling is such a powerful conservation tool, and honestly you don’t need a huge crew or fancy ass kit to start sharing yours :)) 💙 • • • #GoProHero13 #GoProUK #OceanStories #goproyoursummer #MarineConservation #scuba #diving #conservation #wildlifeconservation

whenever I find little enchanted scenes like this out in nature, I’m absolutely captivated by imagining what it would be like to live in them, Thumbelina-style 🌿✨ think a little home under dew-laced leaves in a misty forest, or this bubble-like anemone hidden amongst a field of coral (that you’d have to drag me out of kicking and screaming 🪸) and I can eaaasily attribute this whimsical little practice to the miniature ‘fairy’ cottage my grandma had in her living room that she told me fairies slept in at night 🧚🏼 I still believe her, and would have it no other way 💫 shot on GoPro Hero 13 @goprouk • • • • • #anemone #nemo #underwaterworld #scubadiving #gopro #marineconservation #coral #marinelife
